How do you deploy EJB components inside the iPlanet Application Server?

The iPlanet deployment tool, is in my opinion, the simplest way to deploy EJBs. However, for a more flexible and faster way using command line, the process is the following:
Example assumes bean called Foo

1. Compile your source files: Foo.java, FooHome.java,
2. 2. Generate the stubs using ejbc.exe. The format is: usage (typical): EJBC <options> <home> <remote> <impl>
   usage (RMIC mode): EJBC <options> -rmic <remote>
   options:
   -sl Compile as stateless session bean
   -sf Compile as stateful session bean
   -cmp Compile as CMP entity bean
   -iiop Generate additional CORBA classes
   -gs Generate java source files
   -d <dir> Output directory
   -help Show this message
   -rmic Generate RMIC code (see usage)
   -cp <classpath> Set classpath
   -javaccp <classpath> Prefix to javac classpath
   
   
3. Place your files and the compiled stubs in a directory along with the XML descriptors in a Jar compliant directory structure.
4. Generate a jar file (Foo.jar) that contains the descriptors, the stubs, your class files and the manifest.
5. Execute ejbreg as follows: ejbreg Foo.jar
